To check the placement of peg tubes, you can perform a few assessments. First, confirm the tube's placement using an X-ray, which can provide a clear visual of its position. Additionally, you can check for gastric aspirate; if the contents are consistent with stomach fluid (e.g., pH level of 1-4), this suggests proper placement. Finally, observing for any signs of distress or complications in the patient can also indicate whether the tube is correctly positioned.

A PEG (percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy) tube is generally more effective for long-term nutritional support compared to a nasogastric tube, which is typically used for short-term feeding. PEG tubes are more comfortable for patients and reduce the risk of nasal and esophageal irritation associated with nasogastric tubes. Additionally, PEG tubes can allow for a more stable and consistent delivery of nutrition, especially for patients requiring prolonged feeding. However, the choice between the two depends on the individual patient's needs and medical condition.
